Nigel Ferguson had been overexcited just now, his mind entirely consumed by his brush with death the day before. However, now that things were nearly resolved, he reminded himself that Yvonne Watson, who always accompanied Flossie Wright, was nowhere to be seen, which was quite peculiar.
Hadn't she confessed her feelings to him via text message just two days ago?
Pausing her steps for a moment, Flossie swiveled her head slightly to speak bluntly, "The message was sent wrongly. She won't be coming anymore."
With her words said, Flossie no longer lingered and walked out of the Vegetable Market, along the path that had led her there.
There was no need for her to cover for Yvonne Watson. As opposed to Yvonne's timid, hesitant nature, Flossie preferred the impulsive, courageous character of Nigel who had the courage to face his own feelings and fight for love head-on.
